UNDEROATH LYRICS

1. In Division

I lay in a bed of resistance
Chained to either side
I really wish I could, reset, rewind
Someone has clawed out my eyes
Can't identify
I really wish I could, reset, rewind
You know it's never the way we planned it
I really wish we could, reset, rewind
I'm planning a revolution, inside my head
I'm planning a revolution, when I break free
I call for annihilation
Describe the sunlight so I can feel its burn
If only I could get up from this bed

I don't know what they told you
But this place is not what you think
(Reset! Rewind!)

Living inside a hole, they put me underground
Where they could never find me unless they dig me out
I search for the answers
'Cause this is the end
I search for the answers

God, it's caving in on me
I feel them watching
But no one seems to care anymore
I'm digging, I'm digging my way out
'Cause when I'm breathing, there is no release

I can't believe this! I can't believe this!
My mind is starting to turn on me!

I've been living inside a hole, they put me underground
Where they could never find me unless they dig me out
I've been living inside a hole, they put me underground
Where they could never find me unless they dig me out

2. Catch Myself Catching Myself

This time I am falling further away
Nothing has changed
Nothing has changed like I said it would
Faster towards the ground
That's where they wait, where they wait for me and enter my veins
I feel them crawling through my skin
Collecting my nerves that they feed to their children
I swear it has to stop, 'cause there is nothing left to give
Nothing left to give

I'll be the victor!
I will destroy them!

I wanna watch them burn it down
So I can breathe again

Inhale 'cause after tonight, I won't be the same
Exhale and find my feet on the ground
(I'm not the same anymore)
(I'm not the same anymore)
As I sink down into the floor
And the walls are caving in
And I don't believe in them anymore
Now I try to balance my walk
I am coming down alone
And I have to get them out of my head

I wanna watch them burn it down
So I can breathe again
I wanna watch them burn it down
So I can breathe again

One breath at a time, I'll be just fine
'Cause I'll be right on the inside
I steady my hands, inside of my shell
And wait till their backs are turned
Oh, inside of my head
Where they thought they would win
But I got them right where I want them
Pushed to either side
I'm burning them alive
I hear them, begging and pleading

3. Paper Lung

(It's too late)
(It's too late, now, to pry away)
(To pry away)
My candle burns on both ends so where does it leave us
Standing emptier than we ever left you
With your head in the water it's getting harder to breathe
So stand up, stand up

It's too late, to pry away
It's too late, to pry away

Don't get me wrong, I'm just as scared as you are now
You dropped us off here with no direction
But you never even tried to fight the current
Watch the water pouring faster into your lungs
So breathe in, breathe in

It's too late, to pry away
It's too late, to pry away

But it's hard to hear me when your sinking, down, here
I wanna see you wash it down, wash it down
How can you sleep here
I bear the weight of your world
I don't believe in a single word you sold to me, sold to me
I bear your burden for the last time
I swear I'm done with all of this

It's too late, to pry away from the undertow
I watch it take you, then I walk away

4. Illuminator

Awake, to the sound of emptiness
Alone in a room that's filled with the darkest of light
I was told there was nothing beyond here
How do I know what side I'm on
How do I know what side I'm on
How do I know what side I'm on
How do I know what side I'm on
Bred a captive with nothing but their thoughts engraved in my skin
I don't belong here, but I can't find my exit

This is where they all come to hunt me down, hunt me down
Where they come to hunt me down, they hunt me down

Weigh out the options
Brave the new world
I know what you're thinking
Come on man, I swear you can do this
Come on man, I swear you can do this

I break free from this room they built for me
I break free from this room they built for me

This is where they all come to hunt me down, hunt me down
Where they come to hunt me down, they hunt me down

I tore out my naive eyes, so they locked me up
I tore out my naive eyes, so they locked me up

Preying on the innocent
Preying on the innocent

5. Driftwood

What a sad, sad picture to paint
Of a dirty, dirty little soul
We are so blind here
Won't you watch us all fall apart
I find it hard to believe in it, believe in it
Believe in what you give to me
I never thought I would find you here, find you here
Find you buried in chemicals
So tie a rope the either side, either side
And let's see how your limbs hold up
Eventually we will sink or swim, sink or swim
Sink into the great abyss

6. A Divine Eradication

Between motionless and this retched state of digression
Treading on the line that I drew from my own compliance
Let me feel it rain down
I cannot wait any longer
Let's get something straight
I am not, no I am not who you made me out to be

It's the awakening of my bodies inner consciousness
The fraction of my sleepless numb existence

Rain down now, on me
Rain down now, on me

Pick and pull apart my limbs
Push me down now from your throne
Oh, I feel it now
Drag me down now to the floor
Press the point into my skin
Oh, I feel it now
Oh, I feel it now

Something will have to collide
To end the constant spinning of cycles strung together
And I'm crawling in the streets
Where is my fix
Where is my fix
Where is my fix
Where is my...

I stand alone in time
I stand alone in time
I stand alone in time
I stand alone in time

When they spun away, I fell apart
When they spun away, I fell apart

7. Who Will Guard The Guardians

We are nothing, they own our lives
Just a statue of a stain in time
We are nothing, they own our lives
Spinning in circles, got left behind

We were all warned this would happen
But the words just rang in our ears
Machines, built by machines
Built by machines
Built by machines
Built by machines

We can only hide for so long, for so long
Before they harvest us for the souls that we have left
But we can only hide for so long, for so long
Before they harvest us for the souls that we have left

I swear we cannot wake up from this hell that we live in (we can't wake up)
But when the sun finally hits our face (we can't wake up)
We see that we are merely reflections of reflections left by our predecessors (we can't wake up)
Dragged through the mud (we can't wake up)
Chained by the ankle (we can't wake up)
There is no more running, there is no more escaping (we can't wake up)
If only God could lay his hands down on this barren land and wake us up (we can't wake up)
Because we are the lost (we can't wake up)
We are the helpless (we can't wake up)
We are the forgotten ones (we can't wake up)
We are the lost (we can't wake up)
And we are the abandoned (we can't wake up)

I swear it's worth, saving us
We pray for the sun, to dry us up
I need a clearer head, to see what we're worth
There's still life left down here to revolt
Oh, I know what it looks like from there
A loss of control to this place and we're set to extinct

I swear, I swear it's worth saving us
Oh I swear, I swear it's worth saving us
Oh I swear, I swear it's worth saving us
I swear, I swear...

Revolt! Revolt!
We stood by defeat for so long, for so long
Revolt! Revolt!
We stood by defeat for so long, for so long
We've been under you're control
We've been under you're control
We will not be a part of your disease

8. Reversal

Deviate my life [x14]
Deviate it [x8]

9. Vacant Mouth

I took this picture in the dark
Spinning in lights till we fell apart
So turn it away, turn it away
You don't know what I've seen
The youth is hollow and so are we
They give it away, they give it away

This is what it feels like, this is disintegration
This is what it feels like, this is isolation

I can't find the light
Inside this empty room, I cannot find myself
I can't find the light
I won't let you down, I won't let you down

I hold on by a single thread
Sweet solitude is so complete in my head, in my head
You watch me dangle there and become just a memory
Like they said, like they said
Like they said I would end up

The youth is marching to tear us down
We built our lives here
We fight their calling
The youth is marching to tear us down
We built our lives here
We fight their calling

Take sides, take sides
Line up and take sides, take sides

I'm so sick of you calling the shots (I'll tear you down from the inside)
I'm so sick of you calling the shots (I'll tear you down from the inside)

I can't find the light
Inside this empty room, I seem to lose myself
I can't find the light
I won't let you down, I won't let you down

So write this down
I'm not using my lungs anymore
This is the last time
Write it down
I won't be your voice anymore

10. My Deteriorating Incline

Where Am I
Someone please turn on the light
I'm not fine, I'm not fine
How can I find my way from this little cellar they call life

Down here I tear out my veins and tie them to the chair
This goes on and on and on
Unraveled in contortions, I run for the door
This goes on and on and on

Hold on to my own destruction
I fall face first, I fall face first
Watch me descend, I'm on display
This cycle of human decay
I feel it lurking in the corners
I watch it tracking up my arm

I am the anchor, I am the anchor
I am the anchor, I am the anchor
Bound to my existence, bound to my existence

I make peace with the parasites I live among
Paralyzed, I watch them colonize as I sit here and just fall apart

The beggars and choosers are all the same
The default reaction will never change
So I catch a glimpse of my own reflection
From a shard of glass left on the floor
The beggars and choosers are all the same
The default reaction will never change

It's time to restart
Reassemble what's left of my body
It's time to restart
Pick me up and walk away

Uproot the anchor, Uproot the anchor
Uproot the anchor, Uproot the anchor
Walk right out the door, Walk right out the door

I'll change for the better
It can't get much worse
I'll swallow my own pride
And then accept defeat
Accept defeat
Accept defeat

11. In Completion

So follow me to the empty ocean
We can watch the city descend behind the skylight
On our backs we float away
And forget about the way it used to be

Tonight, I fail
But I never wanted to let you drown without me
Tonight, we are the only ones to watch it fall apart

We slide into our place where I can watch you swim
Don't forget my hands are still wrapped around your neck

We fall deeper into the ground
This nights never looked so hollow
I wanted to share this with you, with you
I'll wait until it opens up again
Sit here till the water reaches our neck
Finally get to watch them wash away my name

Tonight, I fail
But I never wanted to let you drown without me

Open your lungs, follow me down
Open your lungs, follow me down
I set this off
Keep swimming, keep swimming
Oh God, I am emptier than you...
